If a fan says to me "good job Ref" I thank them. If they give me a hard time I say "you have a good day too". If I were your partner I would have grabed your arm and pulled you out of harms way. Best advice is to Get out of Dodge" when the game is over. Ignore comments from Fans.
Also if a Coach is (for example) asking for a 3 second violation. My reply is (if I have to make one) I'll be sure to watch for it on both ends of the court. I usually don't give rules interpretations. And if he's really nasty I'll call one on his team.
